Foreign parties support China's stance on South Sea issue

Representatives from a number of political parties around the world have spoken in favour of China's stance on the South China Sea issue.

"We have always considered the South China Sea as China's territory. China named it many years ago. In the 1970s, some countries, including the Philippines, illegally occupied some islands in the region. We support China in safeguarding its national sovereignty and territorial integrity," said National Democratic Party Nepal, Central Committee Member.
